While I don't care for Brad blackmailing Michael for sex, it came across real pervy, but I don't get how Brad being gay should matter.

Should all gay men be little saints with no flaws or who do nothing but befriend and listen to Sabrina whine? I hate how a majority of soap writers portray all minorities as these one-dimensional, do-gooders. Its unrealistic. Being a vixen or schemer can be challenging to play and usually those characters are the most dynamic characters. Dark characters are a staple in soaps.

For example, I love that Tika Sumpter is playing a dirty little schemer on The Haves and the Have Nots. Its refreshing. She was a bore as the sweet Layla on OLTL.
